I'm having an issue with the influx 1.1 release. I just implemented 
retention policies, but they don't seen to be deleting the data. I believe 
I understand that they won't be deleted up until the value of the Shard 
Group, which can vary bu the duration (if not specified) but even using 
small durations, my data is still not being deleted. 

I have the following retention policies:
even the 10 hour retention policy, still has all the data i've added to it, 
which is 5 days (collected live over the last 5 days). Infact all of these 
retention policies still have all the data that was inserted into them. It 
seems like no deletes are running. 
Does the replica number affect that? I set 2, just so that if this is used 
in a cluster, it already has the retention policy setup correctly for 2, 
but it is currently not used in a cluster. My understanding is the replica 
number has no effect unless in a cluster, right?
